At noon, they were drinking mutton soup in front of the normal school. In the evening, Lu Ming arrived at Montenegro.
The new head of Heishan Mining suddenly stopped negotiations for Lu's Mining to acquire several iron ore mines in Jinkang County, Linxian County, Longgang.
In fact, Lu Ming is not very interested in the iron ore in Jinkang County, because most of them are poor iron ore.
Moreover, Cao's Mining is very visionary. Although the annual output of several rich iron mines in Jinkang County is very small, they are all owned by Cao's Mining.
Although Cao's Mining has not yet changed its name, Lu Ming is already the major shareholder accounting for 70% of the shares.
As long as the corresponding technical equipment is introduced from the southern part of the empire, the output of iron ore in several locations of Cao's Mining will be greatly increased.
Those poor iron ores can be used as a supplement.
In addition, the exploration team commissioned by Lu Ming is also looking for new mineral deposits in Jiangbei. Some mountains in Jiangbei are undeveloped virgin lands. According to geology, there should be iron ore mines with considerable reserves. Of course, even if the exploration is clear,
A new mine has been found, but mining in a warlord-controlled area with the Changing King's Banner at the top of the city is also a huge problem.
However, these are all things for another day. We can only wait and see. At least when Kyushu Steel is actually put into production, there will definitely be a supply of iron ore.
However, the iron ore in Jinkang County, even if it is poor iron ore, is naturally accepted when the price is reasonable, but it does not want to be stopped by the Heishan Mining Management Bureau.
…
The Montenegro Brigade Barracks was expanded on the basis of the original Montenegro Guard Corps Barracks. The expansion project has not yet been fully completed. The lights on the construction site in the West District are on all night long, and there are constant clanging sounds.
The entire military base of the Black Mountain Brigade is surrounded by Tiepan Mountain on the outskirts of the city. This military camp has a very long history and was once the front line of the confrontation between the north and the south during the Great Reclamation Period.
The Senior Officers' Building is halfway up the mountain. It is a three-story building that is hidden by rock mass. Even if an airship passes over it, it is difficult to spot it.
However, due to the topography, the lighting is not affected, the green trees cover it, and the environment is quiet.
Those who are above the school officer level can live here. Generally speaking, they are the deputy battalion commander and above.
However, the brigade chief of staff and some of the school officers also have other residences, which can be regarded as a safety precaution to prevent all officers from being killed and the army directly losing its combat effectiveness.
The luxurious suite that used to be the leader of the security regiment is now Lu Ming's residence. When they came here, Yu Luan and Hei Tou put on their military uniforms and became Lu Ming's orderlies.
As soon as I took a shower, I received a call from Zhenjiang, saying that no abnormalities were found in Professor Ni's condition.
After putting down the phone, there was a loud knock on the living room door, and Hu Dingshan's voice said: "Commissioner Lu, haha, the meal is ready, come on, come on!"
…
Hu Dingshan lived next door, and his wife, Wang, seemed to be a poor wife. Judging from her temperament, she was born a peasant woman, but the food she cooked tasted very good.
Hu Dingshan was a lustful man and had many concubines, but he did not bring them into the military camp. He only sent his wife to accompany him. This did not surprise Lu Ming. After all, this was actually the living area of the military commander, not a wartime camp.
"The new mining director is called Zhu Datong, right? Do you know him well?" After chatting for a while, Lu Ming asked.
Hu Dingshan spat on the ground, "You are worse than me! If I were a wolf, he would be a mangy dog! Let him gain the upper hand!"
Lu Ming nodded, "After the military affairs are settled, I will go to Jinkang in a few days to see what the situation is. Director Zhu has heard that he will also go to Jinkang to inspect in a few days."
Hu Dingshan chuckled: "Then you have to help me vent my anger. Let me tell you, this bastard has an outsider who is so handsome..."
In Wang's traditional way, women do not go to the dinner table where men discuss matters, but looking at her and the orderlies busy, it is obvious that she can hear Hu Dingshan's words.
Hu Dingshan then remembered something and said with a smile: "Forget it, Commissioner Lu's Mrs. Ru is here, she is nothing at all, I forgot about it!"
Lu Ming knew that he was talking about Liuli, so he waved his hand and said, "Do you still remember that you were assassinated?"
Hu Dingshan was startled, and when he saw Lu Ming's eyes, he froze slightly.
Lu Ming smiled: "I didn't do that. I was assassinated several times. I suspect that those assassins are all from the same organization. Moreover, they like to eat roast chicken. I gave them the codename Smoked Chicken Club."
Hu Dingshan was stunned and then laughed: "Smoked chicken party? Damn it, I don't like people who eat smoked chicken, so I will buy some smoked chickens tomorrow."
Lu Ming picked up the tea cup and took a sip of tea, "Do you have anyone you can trust in Jinkang? According to various signs, this smoked chicken club is closely related to Jinkang. I just happened to go take a look." He pondered again.
Said: "Zhu Datong, you'd better make a call. How do I feel that the Smoked Chicken Club will attack him?"
"It would be better if he died!" Hu Dingshan curled his lips, then looked at Lu Ming in shock: "Do you think, like me, that they came to mess with me and assassinate you just to make you fight us to the death? So?
, now it’s Zhu Datong’s turn?”
Lu Ming nodded and said, "However, the situation changes very quickly, so it's hard to say."
Because of the existence of the Smoked Chicken Club, more than thirty intelligence officers were dispatched to the Yellow River Trading Branch in the small county town of Jinkang, but they still found no valuable clues.
I feel that at the very beginning, Xunjihui discovered that the outsider group represented by him had a lot of background, so he wanted to use his own hands to deal with the Hu family. However, several assassins died at the hands of his own people. Now he is afraid of his hatred for himself.
is bigger.
After thinking about it, Lu Ming said: "You said that the warlord Gao Baoshan in Jiangbei is eyeing Heishan. Does he really dare to use force?"
Hu Dingshan chuckled: "That's what the intelligence said, but who knows, it's always good to be careful."
Lu Ming nodded, knowing that Hu Dingshan was deceiving Governor Chuckson. He saw that he was losing power and was not liked by Mrs. Hu, so he tried to find a way to get a huge bargaining chip.
Although he has resigned from all government affairs now, he is afraid that Mrs. Hu and others will start to win over him again, right?
In the Nanping mine he occupied, Zhu Datong did not cause any trouble.
This guy looks rough, but he's actually full of scheming minds, and he doesn't even know how to talk to himself.
Moreover, he must also be thinking about what he should do in the future. This step is very important to him.
…
Back in his room, Lu Ming made a few phone calls.
Putting down the phone, he looked at Yuluan and Heitou beside him, "I'm going to Jinkang in a few days. Please be careful and protect yourselves..."
As he was talking, there was a knock on the door outside.
Yu Luan went to open the door, and a middle-aged short and fat officer came in. Seeing that his military rank was colonel, he stood at attention when he came in, "Commissioner!"
Lu Ming smiled and waved to him, "Come, let's go to the study to talk."
The person who came was the chairman of the Office of the Ombudsman, named Zhao Jingxun. Although he looked inconspicuous, he was carefully selected by Lu Ming from the United Matrix. Moreover, Lu Ming only brought in such a person from the United Matrix to the Black Mountain Brigade.
When Lu Ming is away, he is responsible for handling all affairs of the Inspectorate.
Zhao Jingxun followed Lu Ming, and the two entered the study. The door was closed, and they didn't know what they were talking about.
